Hello,

Hair loss can occur due to many causes such as iron deficiency, hormonal changes, stress, thyroid disorders etc. Iron tablets will help for hair loss only if you have low haemoglobin. A detailed history examination and investigation will be helpful to rule our exact cause.

I recommend you to take healthy diet, proper sleep and yoga as a stress relief. You can also try tablets containing multivitamin and irons for a month. One such tablet which is routinely prescribed by me for my patients is tab. keraglo eva. If hair loss does not improve with it, I recommend you to consult a dermatologist near you.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. R. G. Joshi, Dermatologist
